How to read 死神界?
In this manga I'm reading, the word 死神界 appears. I would have read it has しにがみかい but there was furigana indicating the reading to be ここ.
If there was no furigana, how could I know the correct way to read it?

That kind of furigana is not for telling the reader the reading of the kanji, but what the character actually said. The kanji tell the reader what they meant.
It would be incorrect to read it ここ every time it appears without furigana.
That kind of usage is common in manga and, depending on the genre, in novels.
